Let Me Have a Mild
GIG A r!

THE ABOVE REQUEST IS HEARD DAILY IN
Il cigar stores, saloons and other places where
cigars sold, for it is undisputed fact that
most smokers prefer mild cigar, and that those
who have for long time smoked strong cigars,
thorough Vi njured the stomach and impaired the
nervous system, surely want mild cigar if they
could find the right kind.
How many thousands of smokers who suffer
from loss of appetite, headache nervous irrita.
bility, asthma, etc, and who have tried all pos
sible remedies without success, might he cured
if they knew that their sufferings caused by
the Incorporate use of strong cigars, and that
they should only smoke mild properly pre-
pared ones.
1t is a fact that not all mild cigars agree we'll
with smokers, for in most cases there is lack
of n the selection of the tobacco, and often
the necessary experience for it is wanting, yet
there is one brand which suits the most fastid-
ious smoker, and that is

A T II RETROSPECT.

Ell. Congressional Clown HonR, of Mich
igan, has been making the Boston Republi-
cans laugh. He did 1t by saying that he
" can take solid comfort when he cannot
sleep at night in thinking over what we have
done forthe country"
For q certain type Of Republicans, no
doubt the retrospect is pleasing, as q
sample Of what they hope for in the future.
The Credit Mobilier, the naval contracts,
the land grabbing, the Star Route plumber,
the Treasury supplies - perquisites," the In
dian trading post plums, and all the fat
pickings and stealings Of q party long in
power, are we'll calculated to give ~satisfac-
ton to the Horns, DoRsEYs, BELKNAPs and
RoBEsoNs of the G.. o. p.
But their retrospect is moro soothing than
their prospect.

No OBsTRUCTION.

II IN the-duty of Speaker CARLISLE to see
that the will of the great majority Of the
Democrats in the House shall not this year
be thwarted by any distractions within the
party.
Mr.. RANDALL is q very useful man at the
head Of the Appropriations Committee. No
silly notion of degrading" or punish
ing " him has aver been entertained in any
quarter that is entitled to respect.
But the interests of the country and Of the
party are superior to those of any man.
Either Mr.. RANDALL should agree not to in
terpose the appropriation bills to prevent a
consideration of tax reduction or the rules
should be 30 amended as to give the House
control of its business.
Obstruction must not block the wheels.

FORCING THE ISSUE.

The exclusive and authentic announcement
In THE WORLD this morning that Represent
Ative MILLS, of Texas, will be appointed
Chairman of the Ways and Means Commit
tee. shows that Speaker CARLIsLE is deter
mined to force the issue made by the Presi-
dent.
Mr.. Mills is o tariff reformer who means
business"
He has no patience with the trimmers' pol
10y Of always promising and never perform
ing. With sound convictions and the full
courage Of them. he still has the sense and
tact TO know that the business Of statesman
ship 10 to get the best practicable good when
the best possible good canno be attained.
The selection of Mr.. MILLS as the leader Of
the Democrats in the House means that the
policy of tho party ia to be tariff reform.

eHIPS AND FORTg.

AhiRh-tarih surplus-squanderer says that
"f this: years appropriations come any
where near the total asked by the depart
ments, they ought to pay for something Of
permanent value and real necessity-ships
and forts, for example,"
The estimates ask for $50, 900, 900 moro than
would be the case IL there were not the
temptation of an overlooking Treasury"
The experience Of the past does not hold
much encouragement to getting something
Of permanent value" from expenditure for
ships and forts"
Hundreds Of millions have been spent for
ships and guns since the close Of the war,
and yet we have no effective war vessels or
ordnance. Nothing becomes obsolete SO
quickly as q war ship. unless it be a fort.
To greatly increase the present rate Of ex-
penditure would be to throw the money

BEECHIR,s EMPTY SHOES,

The Rev. CHARLES A. BERRY. of Wolver-
hampton, England, has lone q sensible thing
in declining the call from Plymouth Church.
The call was an ill-advised one. It's accept
ance would have been q serious mistake.
HENRY WARD BEEcHER was nothing il not
intensely American. He was q patriot of
patriots. The spirit of Americanism per-
vaded his every thought and utterance. In
the nature of things it would be impossible
for any foreigner, however talented. to
follow in his footsteps and carry on his great
work in its original spirit.
BEEoHER's big shoes are still empty. They
never will be filed by anybody. But there
are certainly other Americans who can work
in the lines he laid down. If not, rather
than import a n Englishman, let somebody
read Beecher's old sermons every Sunday.
There is lots of vitality in them yet.

left was in the bottom of an unusually long
nose-bag. But the horse was not going to
let those few oats go to waste or be diverted
to agricultural uses. Oh, no!
He tossed his head back 80 as to give the
bag a fling in the air. The oats fell down
and the horse caught them I" on the fly"
His mout wasn't large enough to catch all,
and some fell through and powdered his eyes
with stray oats and dust. The old fellow
blinked through his powder and gave another
vicious toss as the bag began to pan out more
slowly. He shut his eyes as he opened his
mouth. He had sense enough to know that
distributing oats in his sight-machine would
not pacify his hunger.
1t was q comicaI sight. especially as the
animal between whites looked at the reporter
with a very quizzical air, as if he would say
" You're o funny fellow to stop and look at a
horse eat his dinner"
Then he flicked the nose-bag up again and
shook it around in the air to rattle down the
few lonesome oats that stuck to the sides.
Altogether, he was a level-hcaded brute and
won't get left in midsummer.

THE HIPpoDRoMB sLUaaBRs,

II prize-fghting is d~isreputable in itself,
what can be said Of hippodrome prize-fght-
ingr Every well-informed sporting man
knows that the latter is the sort Of unmanly
art that has characterized recent ring con-
tests.
When there are subsidized referees and O
gang of lug-uglies ready to interrupt the
proceedings, If their favorito is weakening,
the prize ring sinks to an even lower plane
than its wont. The CARNEY-MoAuLIrr
fasco is a case directly in point. and the pro-
posed DEMrsEr-R REAGAN fstiouffs looks like
another.
With these methods the sluggors will sup.
press themselves. The hippodrome will
"knock on" the prize ring.
